Halloween Roleplay '09 - The Underground Lake - NEW PRIZES

[MelancholyMelody~]

"Um...it might...glow through your belly?" She blinked. "Oh, no. I looked for any tunnels or even small holes. There wasn't anything I could see. And I could see the bottom too, so I don't think there's anything further down... Of course, that could change," she said thoughtfully, finishing perhaps her most sensical sentence of the entire evening.

She looked to the new girl as she spoke. "Oh, your names both begin with "V"," she stated, pointing out the obvious. "Intriguing...hopefully we won't have to feast on each other's flesh too soon!"

She shoved the crystal into one of her many secret pockets, her cat ears flicking a little to get the last of the water off them. She tilted her head backwards in thought, then appeared to get an idea. "Aha! I'll check things out further up! Wait here," she instructed before batting her little black wings and rising into the air.

The young woman flew upwards and tried to check out the top of the cave, but it was too dark to really see anything. She brought out the small crystal upon remembering it glowed and radiated light, but it was too small. She returned to Vice and Vivien and landed beside them, returning the crystal to her pocket.

"It's far too dark up there, I tried using the crystal but it's too small. Maybe if we could get one of the others, or some other form of light I could try again." She rubbed her chin, trying to think of an idea. "Hmm."

[Maverik]

Vice couldn't help but wonder how the woman was capable of flight. Still, it wasn't all that difficult believe, as he had seen all manners of artifacts that could grant seemingly extraordinary abilities. Shrugging the thought away, he instead turned his focus to the problem at hand. "Too dark, huh..."

His eyes fell onto the crystal for a moment, before an idea came to him. unfastening his extra bags and emptying his pockets, the man made his way to the lake. Turning back, he called to the two young women. "Melody, could you help me gather up more crystals? Vivien, if it's not too much trouble, could you please watch over our stuff? I've got an idea."

With those words, the man took a deep breath, popped something into his mouth, and dove into the lake.

"Well it's more like a nickname." The blonde grinned at Roy and his raven. "Mostly because of this." Pointing at the hedgehog like hairdo, Spikes' hair stood up in a series of short spikes. "I guess it's better then being called 'blue eyes' or 'guy who dresses like it's halloween all year long'." Smirking he glanced again at the raven.

"So what names have you tried already?"

Looking around blue eyes picked out a few more new arrivals. There was a shout from too far away about money from the chick that was drawing Godzilla earlier, she was waving around some sort of glowing crystal. "What is that chic up to now?" Spikes debated going over but decided to wait and ask Roy if he wanted to see as well. Candie was being a little quite as well and was still staring at the ceiling in shock.

A new girl wandered near them and gave a shy hello. "Hey, how are ya? Welcome to the first underground beach party." He smiled widely as he gestured out at all those swimming or hanging around the edge of the water. (that was to Yaneci)

[Yaneci DeNovi]

Yane was about to introduce herself the the guy who'd spoken to her, when a shout caught her attention. Turning, Yane sees someone waving a glowing something-or-other around. Slightly confused, she turns back, sticking out her right hand. "I'm Yaneci, feel free to shorten it however you want. Do you know what happened? That is, how we all got down here?" Yane's blush deepens, as curious as she is about what's going on, she still doesn't want to admit she slept through it all.

[[Long hours are looong at work. So I'll pretty much only be on after 6pm PST until I'm too tired to make a sensible reply.]]

[BubbleTrouble]

"Sure I'll watch the stuff, better than going swimming in evil crystal death lake!" Vivien said to Vice. "Err, I'm sure it's fine really." Vivien looked either side before sitting down and watching Vice go into the lake. She pulled out her mints from her pocket, at least she had plenty of those left.

[Chere and Rose]

Roy looked around and stepped out of the water. He pulled off his shoes and socks and put them neatly in a corner to dry " I don't really have any nickname, not that I know of. I like to study and observe nture so I don't live in the city. It's been awhile since I've talked to many people."

He took off his hoodie and pulled off his pants then waded back into the water. It was pleasantly cool.

[Maeve]

"Dunno. From what I've seen, there's only crystals at the bottom of the lake. Strange glowing crystals... And why don't you want the others to know about it?" Maeve asked to Irenia as she caught her breath from the dive. "I mean, it would be easier to find something with the help of others."

[AlexTheGuardain]

A young woman lays in the middle of the area. She is wearing a soft grey kimono and her long black hair is like a devilish halo of light around her pail skinned face. She moves ever so slightly and sits up. Her eyes dont open as one pail, and long fingered, hand runs across her forhead and she wispers in an unusual language. She shakes her head soflty unsure what has happened to her. Her black eyes open up, then go wide as she appears within a place she has never known. She speaks again in this strange language as she looks around her person. She doesnt know where she is, no, she doesnt remeber a thing.

Alexandra.

Its the only word within her mind right then as she unsteadly stands up looking for help, but who, what would they help her with? Who was she, where HAD she come from? So many questions ran though her mind. She knew nothing, or at least something for she could think. And if asked she could also speak. She was confused and didnt know what to do although. She was in a frantic state of mind as she looked around amlessly.

[SasorizaKitty]

Alexandra would be looking around when she would come face to face with the snow-grey muzzle of the cave lioness Maverick. The cave lion was huge when compared to normal lions, standing at about five feet at the shoulder when on all fours, and was staring at Alexandra with eyes the color of rubys. Maverick stared at the girl who just awoke, her rounded ears flicking, and gave a grunt that came from deep in her throat. She had huge paws and larger-than-normal saber like fangs.

[MelancholyMelody~]

Melody watched as Vice took off his extra bags and made his way to the lake. Melody followed behind him, nodding as he asked for her help. "Sure thing, I'll do what I can."

She wondered for a moment what it was he'd put in his mouth, but he dived down into the water before she had a chance to ask, so she followed behind him once again, diving into the water after him.

She looked around to see where he was and started to swim along after him, stopping by some of the larger crystals. She thought for a moment which would be the best way to break them off from the rocks. It wouldn't be an easy task with their size. She shifted over to some slightly smaller ones and foraged around in her pockets before taking out a small hammer.

She placed the hammer near the base of one of the bits of crystal that protruded out from the rest, lined it up and then swung the tool into it hard. A crack appeared and she continued the process until the part came off. The young woman surfaced with the crystal, catching her breath and heading over to the side to place it down beside Vivien.

She repeated her actions until she'd managed to collect a good pile of glowing crystals at the side of the lake. She turned to Vice as he surfaced beside her. "You think that's enough?" she asked, looking to his collection of crystals too.

[Angelic.Demon]

Alyssa was starting to freak herself out, she was wander alone in the dark, and wasn't exactly sure where she was. She still heard the voices of people nearby, but couldn't tell where they were coming from. While walking she kicks a stone, it bounces and echoed, scaring her at first, until she realized she caused the noise.

[lyte]

"Hm....maybe....lets collect some of those crystals. I have a little bit of medical knowledge, and if we grind them into a powder...." Irenia continued to mutter to herself. "Anyways, I don't want them to know, because...well, I don't know why. It seems there is an air of secrecy in this place." She said, then she sneezed "Or maybe that's the dust." Laughing, she caught her breath and dived, beginning to dive. "Come one! Lets get some crystals. I feel they may be important in our search for the solution to our host's disappearance.

[Miyani-chan]

Mihiru stared at the water for a long time. "Argh! I don't care anymore; I just want to get a little wet a least...!" She mumbled to herself, then immediately pulled off her socks and splashed her feet into the lake. She smiled immediately. "This feels so niiice!" Mihiru said pleasantly.

[AlexTheGuardain]

Alexandra didnt make a peep or a scream when she found herself face to face with this creature. She actualy smiled. She liked animals, and somehow, she could tell (or at least thought) that she one wouldnt harm her! She slowly reached up and hand too let it sniff. She wasnt compleatly calm, as no normal person would be, but was too the extent that the animal wouldnt think that she was a threat. At least, she thought this was the fact, and hopped it as well. This wasnt the first thing she would be comming face to face too when she sat up, but at last, it was.

[SasorizaKitty]

Maverick made a sound deep in her throat and turned her head to allow for better scratching. And that's when Frey moved over. "What did you find, Maverick? Oh...hello there." Frey looked down at the other woman, her eyes ruby red, matching the cave lion's. She appeared to be around 26 or so, with richly tanned skin and shockingly white hair that was cropped in a boy-like fashion, with a long low pony tail in the back. She wore clothes made of natural materials, such as deerhide and furs, and had the ears and tail of a feline herself. The woman had her usual stoic expression on her face as she nodded to the girl before her. "You look lost," she stated plainly.
